Because we all started somewhere. Photo: Shutterstock
Let’s face it; we were all beginners at one point. The 11-time World Champ, Kelly Slater, started somewhere. Irons, Florence, Toledo; they all started out as beginners, but they learned. If only we had these useful illustrations, then we could’ve saved a lot of time learning the hard way. Perhaps we could’ve saved ourselves the embarrassment of being yelled at. Lineups these days are crowded, I get it. But maybe these videos will serve as a safe, smart foundation for someone looking to start surfing. So check out my new series of instructional videos for beginners (audio is in English and writing is in Portuguese).
1. Want to learn to surf?
2. Sandbars, channels, and rip currents.
3. Intervenient elements to the breaking wave.
4. Parts of the wave.
